I have an idea that EB could implement in the next release.
When a faction moves into Patala or Taksashila, an advisor will pop up and say "Be warned my King! The Mauryans do not take our trespassing into their territories lightly. You may proceed in taking these provinces, but expect a violent counter attack". Something like that.
If the player sieges the cities, a rebel army will pop up and engage him immediatly. If the player manages to defeat the army and captures the city, a rebel army will still pop up from time to time to recapture it.
If the player loses, um, they can expect to be chased all the way to Iberia.![]()
This is what I can think of to represent the strong resistance of the Indians towards Selukid or Baktrian conquests. This could be also a way to portray the presence of the Mauryans without actually providing a faction slot for them.
I seen this similar script when I play as the Lussotannans. So I think it can be applied to India.
